Montreal’s public transit systems face $500 million shortfall in 2023
The number of riders on exo’s commuter trains is down 50 per cent — an amount the transit service doesn’t expect will increase much this year.
“As we all know, people are sometimes working from home,” Marie-Hélène Cloutier, exo’s executive director of mobility, told Global News.Instead, the transit agency is focusing on providing new localized bus service off the Island of Montreal to try and meet the needs of shifting ridership habits. ”They maybe can take another kind of service that is not the train. It could be a micro transit, buses more locally that is going to answer their needs,” Cloutier said.
